This book is about coding interview question of software and Internet companies. It covers five key factors which determine performance of candidates: (1) the basics of programming languages, data structures and algorithms, (2) approaches to writing code with high quality, (3) tips to solve difficult problems

Mastering .NET development is as much about understanding the functionality of the .NET Framework as it is about the syntax and grammar of your chosen language. Visual C# 2005 Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach recognizes this fine balance. This book meets your need for fast, effective solutions to the difficulties you encounter in your coding projects.
The recipes included in this book have been chosen and written with emerging pros in mind. The book features an equal balance of code and text.

Learning to design objects effectively with Java is the goal of Beginning Java Objects: From Concepts to Code, Second Edition. Plenty of titles dig into the Java language in massive detail, but this one takes the unique approach of stepping back and looking at fundamental object concepts first. Mastery of Java—from understanding the basic language features to building complete industrial-strength Java applications—emerges only after a thorough tour of thinking in objects.

Related to “Tax Complexity” is the eighth-ranked small-business problem, “Frequent
Changes in Federal Tax Laws and Rules.” This problem moved up seven positions, a significant
jump from 15th
in 2008. In the last four years, real and anticipated changes to the tax code
took center stage through a number of tax changes imbedded in the new Patient Protection
Affordability Care Act and the looming sunset of the Bush tax cuts and payroll tax holiday
which are set to expire at the end of 2012.

iOS 6 Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach is your code reference and guide to developing solutions on iPad, iPhone, and other iOS 6 SDK devices and platforms. This book provides in-depth code samples and discussions for scenarios that developers face every day. You'll find numerous examples of real-world cases that will enable you to build fully functional applications quickly and efficiently.

Another class of linear codes, known as
Convolutional codes.
We study the structure of the encoder.
We study different ways for representing
the encoder.Convolutional codes offer an approach to error control
coding substantially different from that of block codes.
A convolutional encoder:
encodes the entire data stream, into a single codeword.
does not need to segment the data stream into blocks of fixed
size (Convolutional codes are often forced to block structure by periodic
truncation).
is a machine with memory.

Join the game development revolution today! XNA 3.0 greatly simplifies the development of your own games, lowering the barrier for programmers to get into game development. In XNA, you can start coding your games from the very start, a true revelation compared to other game programming environments. XNA doesn’t sacrifice power for this ease of use—it is built entirely on DirectX technology.

Through the aid of a compiler, a program written in a computer language, such as C++, is turned
into machine code, which is executed on the computer. However, going from an idea to a program that
works successfully takes a lot of time and effort. It may take several rewrites of code to get the program
to work correctly. To accomplish this, students must learn a disciplined approach to organizing the code
and learn how to trace their programs.

This paper proposes a hierarchical text categorization (TC) approach to encoding free-text clinical notes with ICD-9-CM codes. Preliminary experimental result on the 2007 Computational Medicine Challenge data shows a hierarchical TC system has achieved a microaveraged F1 value of 86.6, which is comparable to the performance of state-of-the-art ﬂat classiﬁcation systems.

Test-Driven Infrastructure with Chef demonstrates a radical approach to developing web infrastructure that combines the powerful Chef configuration management framework with Cucumber, the leading Behavior-driven development (BDD) tool. Learn how to deliver real business value by developing infrastructure code test-first.

Windows Phone Recipes utilizes a proven problem-solution approach, providing a concise guide to all the phone’s features in recipe book format. First, the problem you're facing is identified. Then, a clear explanation of the solution is given, supported by a fully-worked code sample that demonstrates the feature in action.

Java programmers, you now have the resource you need to harness the considerable power of
design patterns. This unique book presents examples, exercises, and challenges that will help
you apply design pattern theory to real-world problems. Steve Metsker's learn-by-doing
approach helps you enhance your practical skills and build the confidence you need to use
design patterns effectively in mission-critical applications.

Android in Action, Second Edition familiarizes the reader with the Android approach to mobile applications. The Android application framework is thoroughly explained and discussed within the current competitive landscape. Following the release of Android 2.0, this edition has been updated to cover hot topics such as Bluetooth integration, web development strategies, AppWidget framework, sensor management, the Android Native Development Kit, and localization.

We live in the age of biology—the human and many other organisms’
genomes have been sequenced and we are starting to understand the
function of the metabolic machinery responsible for life on our planet.
Thousands of new genes have been discovered, many of these coding for
enzymes of yet unknown function. Understanding the kinetic behavior
of an enzyme provides clues to its possible physiological role. From
a biotechnological point of view, knowledge of the catalytic properties
of an enzyme is required for the design of immobilized enzyme-based
industrial processes.

Before we dive in and start building applications for the iPhone, I’d like to quickly
establish the playing field. In this chapter, I’ll define key terms, compare the pros and
cons of the two most common development approaches, and present a crash course in
the three core web technologies that are used in this book.

This invaluable handbook provides engineers and technicians with more than 5,000 calculations for solving day-to-day problems in all ten major engineering fields. The new Fourth Edition features numerous new areas from new design codes in civil engineering to miniaturization, new approaches to HVAC design, composite usage in engineering design, and laptop computer office and field calculations. "The Standard Handbook of Engineering Calculations" complies with new environmental requirements in engineering....

This book presents practical techniques for writing lightweight software test automation in a
.NET environment. If you develop, test, or manage .NET software, you should find this book
useful. Before .NET, writing test automation was often as difficult as writing the code for the
application under test itself. With .NET, you can write lightweight, custom test automation in
a fraction of the time it used to take. By lightweight automation, I mean small, dedicated test
harness programs that are typically two pages of source code or less in length and take less
than two hours to write.
